Such a board would need to be pre-moderated otherwise anyone could put anything they liked on it.

That is a bit too sensible for Genes, Graham. And also we must encourage the saddo rr'er to read some jokes and try and understand some of the other side.

Here's an idea. What if we had a jokes board where none of the posts could be RRed? Anybody without a sense of humour could be encouraged to stay away from that board as they wouldn't be able to RR anything. :-S

Yes, agree Carol. Not a very helpful post from Rollo.

Must not elaborate. Important to keep my posts short (and preferably sweet) :-)

Rollo your point 3 is a personal attack on Mr M as is your remark ... '
why is any of this important ?'

It is important to Mr M.

Yet again it is a case of ... if you do not agree with/like a thread just stay off of it.

We all find different things amusing, it is not an age thing.

You do tend to grow old though on chat. I am losing my hair wondering what rr'er will strike against next.

Why can't they pis

(Edit) Why can't they persistently stay on threads they enjoy :-S :-S

growing old........ is usual, unless you are REALLY good, cos only the good die young.

growing UP is optional.

I haven't grown up yet

My sense of humour can be slightly smutty........ ridiculous......... crazy, whatever.

What I don't find funny, is a small-minded person with nothing better to do than to decide what others should read!!!!

:-P

That's it, Mr M. Keep em up there. Let the so and so keep reporting a 2008 thread that bounces back. So funny!!!

What happened to the limerick thread. All clean and wholesome like Edward Lear. Has that been deleted or whooshed by the automatic machine that picks of every mention of Scunthorpe and prevents us having a titter :-S

well there are three possibilities none of them likely

(1) there is a human being who has nothing better to do than rr posts of mildly smutty jokes with an audience of a few dozen at most

(2) genes RU (who have shown scant programming ability) has somehow got the smarts to create a software robot which scans content and auto rr's stuff

(3) another human being has nothing better to do with his time than to post mildly smutty jokes of ancient provenance which are very funny for those with a humour age of about 14 but otherwise boring

The inconsistencies in #2 may mean that the RR is a human. OTOH the general scatter gun impact is typical of GenesRU programming. Maybe in order to read a joke it should first be necessary to read a captcha code....

Could Mr Magoo pass the captcha check test or is he himself a plant?

why is any of this important ?
